Current issues, feedback & complaints on public services in Malaysia
THERE is a proposal to separate the prescription and dispensing of medicine to doctors and pharmacists respectively.
What happens when a patient sees a doctor on a Sunday (or on a public holiday)?
If the patient lives in a rural area, it would be inconvenient for him to get his medicine from a pharmacy. The doctor can give him the medicine immediately.
If the doctor has no pharmacist, he has to engage one and is likely to pass the cost to the patient.
